Glad I could help. Also, I have to mention: I don't think I ever used this technique in an actual strategy. The strategy above, I put together with 2 indicators that would give frequent signals, I just picked them at random.

Thanks again.!!

This gives me another idea for a variation on the synthetic data effort. Without messing with a strategy, you could just swap-in an inverse dataset. Seems like a great idea to check for over-optimization.

I find it helpful, it's very important to determine if a profitable strategy is "real" or just curve fitting and good luck. Some strategies look great, but using Long or Short, it could show it was mostly all longs in an uptrend -- so when uptrend ends, how will strategy perform?
Also, can use it with logical groups so one set of rules enter for longs, second set of rules enter only shorts.

Would you have a strategy available that you could post showing this principle..... two sets of rules...

I see that this could be a most useful feature, am not having any ideas as to how to accomplish it.

Thanks for your help

That is so cool! Although, I'm a bit curious of what kind of situation where you'd only want to test out only selling/buying... would it just be for personal amusement and curiosity? lol

Yes you can. Use Long or Short indicator to filter direction.
